RE: {bb} BB e-mail notification - bbwarnrules.cfg

[Jerry Shenk <jas@dect.com>]

Oh good grief.....that makes sense....that makes COMPLETE sense.  A simple 
host entry will take care of that....actually, it seems that sendmail 
insists on using DNS instead of the hostname file for name resolution.  
Obviously some configuration needs to be changed someplace.

So, is the first example I gave with a timing parameter (:~10-60) after each 
mail recipient and a space between the three recipients is correct?
